Generations of people in the city were brought up in a world where you had your milk delivered to the door every morning, by a milkfloat.
And we have looked through the archives to find 17 great photos recalling those days, with pictures dating from the 1960s to the early nougties.
Take a look at our pictures showing both the milkfloats that you saw driving quietly along your street, and the milkmen and milkwomen who got up and the crack of dawn to make sure you had milk on your breakfast table.
What are your memories of them?
